Just want to brag a bit. First time hatching. It started when my favorite rooster (the one in my avatar pic) was killed by a dog and hours after I decided to Incubate a few of the eggs I thought he probably fertilized. The hen was a white silkie.
Also I should add they were pullet eggs. Being a first timer I had nothing but temp issues and humidity issues. Spikes some days at 106. (not sure for how long). It was a shot in the dark but they all turned out nice and healthy and I could not be more happy with it.

I know! you can imagine how exciting it was to see a black and then 2 grey chicks come out of the eggs instead of white. They will be some interesting looking chickens when they get older
